Viaje Summerfest 2011 Announced

There are six total cigars coming out from Viaje this week, the two that have gotten the least amount of press? Summerfest. The details were first leaked here, but it has been relatively quiet since. While there are two sizes, this is a relatively small (one-hundred boxes) release, even for Andre Farkas’ Viaje. Anyways, details after the jump.

Another edition of the annual release. A total of 6,000 cigars (100 boxes of 30 for each size.) No word on pricing yet.
